Bikeways These standards address ori -street bicycle facill- ties: See separate standards'at end of document .for off-street bicycle path and accessway facility' requirements: Design Guidelines 1) Striped bicycle lanes are the preferred bikeway design choice for arterial and major collector streets to provide a high level of mobility for bicyclists. Ashared roadway generally is sufficient for Neighborhood Collector streets. 2) An interconnected street system is an impor- tant factor in providing convenience and conti- nuity of travel for bicyclists. 3) On -street bicycle lanes and off-street paths will be constructed in those locations indicated in adopted plans.* 4) Bicycle signing and pavement markings should be consistent throughout the bikeway system per the 1995 Oregon Bicycle and Pedes- trian Plan guidelines. 5) Curb inlets are the preferred design option for storm water facilities. Where installation of curb inlets is not possible, catch basins with approved bike -proof covers are an acceptable alternative. (See Figure 3 ) 6) Avoid designing continuous right turn lanes on major streets with bicycle lanes. * Striped bicycle lanes will be added to existing arterial and major collector streets which are already improved to urban standards only in cases where such bike lane projects on specific streets are included in the adopted TransPlan. On -street bike lanes provide a high level of mobility for bicyclists 11
